I’m Natalia - Travel Fairy!? 

I love crafting trips that blend discovery, comfort, and a little bit of magic.

My initial introduction to the world of travel was becoming a flight attendant after my graduation many moons ago! This gave me first-hand knowledge of flights, airlines and fuelled my own love of travel alongside other travellers.

I’ve visited more than 30 countries, lived in Russia, Thailand, and India,  and travelled widely across Europe and Asia. Each experience has helped me become familiar with both budget and luxury styles of travel (and everything in between!).

As a mum of two, I’m also an expert in travelling with children from toddlers to teens, and I know how to make those trips smooth and enjoyable to all!

With so many years in customer service and the travel industry, I understand and I’m attentive to my clients’ needs and preferences, creating journeys that match their personality and style of travel — from solo travellers and couples to families and all kinds of groups.

I see every journey as a beautiful puzzle. With care and attention, I bring all the pieces together to create your seamless and unforgettable experience.

So, whether you are planning a family holiday, peaceful escapes, or a once-in-a-lifetime journey, I’d love to help.  

Let’s have some fun & bring your travel dreams to life together!

I have been in the Travel Industry for over 10 years, starting off primarily selling Australia, then moving to House of Travel in the Product Department where I was for 4 years as a South Pacific Destination Expert. In April 2023, I was given an opportunity to work here at House of Travel Ellerslie in a retail role. Here I have discovered a love of creating and curating holidays for all types of travellers to ensure they have the best possible experiences while there.

What I love most about my job is helping others make their travel dreams a reality! It may sound cheesy, but it really is true!

I started out back in 2002 & have enjoyed travels through South East Asia, the Pacific, Australia, USA, the UK & Europe!

After having my son just before our first Covid lockdown in 2020, I took a bit of a hiatus but came back to House of Travel in April 2024.

Once a travel agent, always a travel agent!

I really enjoy building relationships with my customers and taking the time to get to know them in the effort to ensure we create the dream holiday they are looking for.

I look forward to helping you weave your dreams too!

I liken planning a holiday to baking a cake. It takes several well measured and thought out ingredients for a great result.

I have been lucky to have travelled extensively myself and being a travel consultant for more than 20 years, I use these 'ingredients' - experience and expertise - to draw on to help create amazing holidays and lifelong memories.

It is such a pleasure to help my clients get the best out of their holidays and manage an incredible team of travel professionals.
